Forecasts

In The Summertime (2/1), Forward Spell (9/4), Word For Word (6/1), National Dream (8/1), Triton (9/1), Death Blow (16/1), Ravens Sword (16/1), Brave Voyager (18/1), Belle's First Wave (18/1), Sir Theodore (22/1), Quick Response (25/1), Reef Bound (50/1), Uncle Lucky (80/1), Bim Bam Buddy (100/1)

IN THE SUMMERTIME should give a good account after an improved second here last time. Forward Spell is most likely the principal challenger, while Triton is perhaps the most interesting of those left.
